Bonds (State of Texas)

Please contact us to find out the requirements to obtain Bonds. Conduct Bonds are relatively easy to obtain with no credit checks for new businesses. However, any business that has received one or more tickets from TABC may require collateral before the bonding company will write the bond. Tax bonds will require credit checks on the business owner(s) and your account with the Texas State Comptroller must be current to obtain or renew a tax bond. The cost of the tax bonds are determined based on your credit check and payment record with the Texas State Comptroller. In most situations business owners become exempt from Conduct Bonds after 3 years and it is possible to become exempt from Tax bonds after 2 years of a perfect payment record with the Texas State Comptroller.
